Zombie Mode is still Zombie Mode and fans will find a lot to discover and challenge in the new scenario, but the stark tones might put off the more lighthearted fans of the mode in its previous incarnations. Likewise, multiplayer is as tight as ever and War mode is a solid addition that we hope to see built upon in all further Call of Duty content, but the hub feels tacked on. The campaign is a tour and spectacle of the terror and intensity of the conflict as the Allies fought their way into to the Eagle’s Nest, but the forgoing of nearly all outside perspectives in favor of an all-American campaign feels narrow in comparison to previous COD outings that have tackled this subject matter. All the usual highlights.In terms of bringing old-school Call of Duty up to modern standards, Call of Duty: WWII does fairly admirably, but at the same time every end of it feels like something is missing. So if you played games between 19ish, this’ll feel very familiar. We’ve seen it in Allied Assault, in multiple Call of Duty games, in Gearbox’s underrated Brothers in Arms series, and so on. Dredging up the ol’ D-Day to VE-Day storyline once again, from June of 1944 through to April of 1945, it’s the same Band of Brothers/ Saving Private Ryan story video games love to focus on. IDG / Hayden DingmanĪnd if Call of Duty: WWII is the start of a World War II renaissance, it’s about the safest bet you could make. And voila, 15 or 20 years later we’re reloading our M1 Garands. That gets stale, we return to science fiction. Then we do World War II to death so we move on to modern war. We do sci-fi to death in the ‘90s so everyone moves on to World War II. “Everything in moderation” is not the games industry’s strong suit, which I guess is why we tend to get ideas in waves.
